I use a company truck that I am not allowed to cut any wires because I am not the owner and not allowed to start cutting up the trucks wires..... I am interested in installing a remote start now that the cold is here. It has a factory alarm that came with truck when new and wondered if a harness exists that I can quickly install a remote start and then remove when I no longer use that truck. I am willing to tap into 1 or 2 wires but am looking for a quick and inexpensive way to get what I want. If it were my truck I would use a professional MECP installer, I on the other hand will not be able to recover the expense of the starter or the cost of an installer and am hoping for a positive response. I live near Danbury CT and work in Brooklyn and Manhattan. I hope that someone here can give me answers to my questions as well as possiblly reccomend an inexpensive remote start with a range of 800-1000 ft. I see so many different types and have no fricking idea one from another.

Hey, I was just in Danbury a few weeks ago.
I don't know of any kind of harness like that that exists for your truck.
You might want to consider using T-taps to make your connections.
This website has some good photos of what a T-tap is:

NOTE: Many installers hate T-tap connections, calling them unreliable, while others love the time savings, and feel that they work fine when used properly.
Regardless, it would make it very easy to remove the system when it's time to turn your truck in, there will be almost-unnoticable marks on the factory wires, and you can easily tape them up.
That truck has an anti-theft transponder chip in the key. Do you have access to a spare key, or just one?
If you have only one key, you'll need something like the XK07 from www.bypasskits.com to deal with the transponder system.
